The Color of Summer
LOCATION: Telluride Arts HQ Gallery (Telluride)
“The Color of Summer”
On Display from July 2 - October 25
Summer is often remembered through color. For The Color of Summer, artists were asked to select a predominant color that best defines summer for them. Inspired by the natural landscape, personal memories, cultural traditions, emotional associations, and unexpected interpretations, the exhibition reveals the many ways color shapes our experience of the season.
The exhibition is curated chromatically, with works grouped by color—greens with greens, blues with blues, and warm tones beside warm tones—creating an immersive visual spectrum throughout the gallery.
